M Mode HUD with normal dash display

Alright I've been digging on this for a while. I know everyone has been trying to get M Mode to enabled automatically, or by M1/M2 buttons to no avail. However, has anyone found a way to code the "M Mode" HUD display to be always on?

I've dug around the g20 forums as well and haven't had any luck finding something like this. The normal HUD without RPM is just kind of pointless to me, but I do sometimes prefer the "classic" style of the dash cluster, so I'm trying to enable just the M Mode HUD for all modes or some such. Thanks in advance for any info!

I've wanted this since day one of delivery. Started a thread as well and have been complaining to BMW Corp: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1856760 Really hoping the more noise folks like us make, perhaps BMW will allow you to choose which HUD you want with each M button.

Did you get a response from BMW?

"noise" versus "compelling story telling" are 2 very different things.

Who did you contact?

I've contacted their customer relations number as well as the genius email from here: https://www.bmwusa.com/contact-us.html. So have many others.

"Noise" is a generic term, like being a "squeaky wheel". I'm not sure how "compelling" a story anyone can draft for a silly thing like a configurable HUD in a M1/M2 button. My aim is that if enough people create "noise", BMW might listen.
